Through the Eyes of a Son: Journey to the Islands of Saaremaa and Hiiumaa:
5-DAY ROAD TRIP Denis from Pärnu, Estonia, found himself on Hiiumaa Island for work. He was peacefully driving along a narrow road when he received a call from his Lithuanian friend. As they chatted, his friend casually mentioned that at that very moment, two Lithuanians were also traveling through Estonia: a father and his son. Denis knew my fath
Motorcycle Season 2022: Royal Enfield & JAWA
Without further ado, I would like to dedicate this photo album to my father, because most likely without him it would not exist. I took my motorcycle driving exam back in 2010 and yet, I only used it a couple of times while traveling around Asia in 2016 and 2017. Everything changed two years ago... Back in the day, when dad was my age, not every yo
Festival: Baltic JAWA 2022
It is not a secret that my dad is a huge fan of everything motorcycle-related. Actually, he owns three of these beauties and plans to buy his forth one whenever the stars are in the right alignment. Despite the fact it is not the most fancy one, nor it is the most comfortable one in long rides, his JAWA 640 has a very special place in his heart as
JAZ Aquamarine Resort: Hurghada, Egypt
JAZ Aquamarine Resort JAZ Aquamarine is a 5-star Resort, located in the Red Sea Governorate, Hurghada, Egypt. This time I would like to share a few photos of the JAZ Aquamarine Hotel and its surroundings, plus just a sneak peek of my solo trip to the Karnak Temple.

Lithuanians in Egypt: Local bus trip to Luxor and Hurghada
The 7-day all-inclusive stay in Hurghada, Egypt was paid for by the company that I work for. 25 colleagues of mine came with their wives or girlfriends so a total of 50 Lithuanian guests swarmed the 5-star resort. Laying by the pool and enjoying the sun is nice, but real Egypt stretches on the other side of the fence, so I took the local bus to Lux
Towns and villages of Northern Lithuania!
21 km hike from Linkuva to Žeimelis Semigallia (Lithuanian: Žiemgala, Latvian: Zemgale, German: Semgallen) is a historical land that was previously inhabited by the Semigallian Baltic tribe and is now split between Latvia and Lithuania. Linkuva and Žeimelis are two historically important towns in Lithuanian Semigallia. Both of them take a special p
Journey around the world: Thailand
In the last weeks before the trip, we spent a lot of time on physical preparation. My hometown stadium served as a stretch of obstacles, and the old streets of Linkuva were a sanctuary of peace. Confidence grew with every workout. Nothing boosts the mood as much as some propper music. In this particular case, 'One night in Bangkok' by Muray Head co
A virtual tour to Klaipėda City!
THE GEM OF WESTERN LITHUANIA 'Dark' and 'cold' are yet some other synonyms of the city of Klaipėda during long months of Lithuanian winter. While Christmas morning came with a thick layer of snow, it vanished quickly after the holidays, leaving grey clouds and extremely high humidity behind it. Combined with low temperature, it makes you tremble. D
Kokopelli festival in the famous Vinetu Village!
Vinetu village is an open-air museum, where history and legends come alive. Also, it is the home of some special people that I was blessed to meet almost three years ago. It was the end of the winter when I happened to pop up in the Vinetu village sauna for the first time. Mindaugas Timinskas and his wife Jurgita are the ones that started building
Journey around the world: Georgia (a.k.a. Sakartvelo)
BATUMI A slight drizzle turned into a downpour. Heavy drops washed our faces and wet clothes were getting heavy. Devices were safe in the depths of my backpack and everything else didn't matter. The mood was at its peak and nothing could affect it. Not even a thunderstorm. After three weeks in Turkey, authorization codes to get Iran visas were not
